UTOPIA THROUGH NOSTALGIAJan 10 - Feb 8, 2019Private view Wed Jan 9 6pm - 8pmThe Koppel Project is pleased to present Utopia Through Nostalgia, a group exhibition featuring a body of work by eight emerging artists addressing ideas of time and the diminishing realities of existence.

In this group exhibition, ‘utopia’ becomes the imaginative reconstruction of a lost past. Entwined with memory and fantasy, it creates a past made from distorted narratives. Time advances, with its unforgiving power to decay, moving forward but never stopping. While it has the ability to blur the past, it can leave us yearning for a life already lived.

Utopia Through Nostalgia presents a collection of experiences inspired by memories of all ages. The exhibition is achieved through the compilation of artwork in a variety of media all of which capture the traces of time. This ranges from the figurative reproductions of imagery in painting to abstract compositions to the different textures in the surfaces of sculptures and installations.
